Falling

[Sample]
Only a child, and with a sweet child's tender heart
Waiting for someone to call you mine
How do you keep your faith, when you are always falling, yes, I'm falling
How do you find a way to keep from crying

[Verse 1: Awon]
I’m a bird with broken wings
I left the nest destined for the pedestal of kings
Only to be told that I couldn’t fly seen
Without a head start given to my counterparts
I’m always behind
Searching for a place in a world that’s never mine
God made my skin bronze when will I ever shine
That’s law and order for you, an attempt on my life
No liberty for me I’m guilty on sight
What have I ever donе to be born with this mark
That my mother said was beautiful it torе me apart
I even became a number, a document statistic
A ward of the state that made me independent
Emancipated with the proclamation of a felon
‘Cause our word is bond you might suffer if you telling
You have to understand the concept of no snitching
Is like telling masta “them boys runnin for the fences”

[Verse 2: Anti-Lilly]
Watch for a double cross like I’m David Ruffin
My temptations in the past that had left me with next to nothing
Was trapping out of my '91 Regal, made some plays that’s illegal
Fuck the rules a cracker told me “you ain’t tried if you ain’t cheating”
Who do you think made the procedures to keep my people sinking
Hard to have a conscience when your country move on convenience
Every block is like a corner store we pay more than it’s worth
Thought about leaving this earth a couple occasions since my birth
I’d be lying if I spoke of the wise
Dreamed about new skies on the surface I tried to disguise
Couple times I done lost a sense of my worth I had to sell it sometimes
I got tired of tryna dress up all the strain on my mind
I hate complaining bout it
Tapped in with nature, took some shrooms
And take the rain up out me
Some better weather coming soon
My highs and lows is like the difference ‘tween the sun and the moon
I’m running on fumes I hope I got enough to get me through
